INDIANAPOLIS — Grad transfer guard DeVante’ Jones came to Michigan for a chance to play in the NCAA Tournament.
Yet, Jones won’t get that opportunity in Thursday’s first-round game against Colorado State at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. He didn’t make the trip with the team and won’t play because he’s in concussion protocol.
According to coach Juwan Howard, Jones suffered the concussion when he took an inadvertent elbow in the nose area on a drive to the basket during a “competitive” period of practice Tuesday.
